Stephenson's Rocket (2016)

This model was a response to a brief in our 3D class. We had to model and texture a complex, hard-surface, real-world object. I chose the Stephenson's Rocket steam train because of its unique appearance and the challenge of recreating its intricate piping and wiring.

​

As the Rocket no longer has its original paintwork the reference images were mostly second-hand, such as blueprints, paintings and photos of recreations.
